offset (optional, taken into account for every DateTime property)
offset in minutes to the calculated time

You can bind a property to different item types, which has a special meaning in the binding. If you bind a DateTime property (start, end, …) to a DateTime Item, the DateTime is simply displayed. If you bind it to a Switch, an event is scheduled and the state of the Switch is updated to ON, immediately followed by a OFF at the calculated time. You can even specify an offset for the event and bind multiple items to the same property.

The position items (azimuth, elevation) and moon items (phase, distance, perigee, apogee, zodiac) are updated at the configured refresh interval in openhab.cfg.

Schedules

Multiple event types are supported. Each type has two events: start and end. In general, for all types their start and stop events coincide with a stop or start event of another type.
